In Case You Had Any Doubts About What the Freedom From Religion Foundation Really Is
The Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF) is planning to distribute some… literature… to public high school students in Florida:
An atheist group is planning to distribute a pamphlet in several Florida public high schools that depicts an illustration of a cartoon Bible sexually assaulting a young woman.
According to a report by Brittany Hughes at CNSNews.com, the Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF) plans to hand out a pamphlet entitled "An X-Rated Book: Sex and Obscenity in the Bible," with a front cover that is illustrated with an animated Bible with arms, legs, salacious facial expression, and salivating mouth, with its hand aggressively extended up the dress of a screaming woman, who is attempting to run away from it.
As you may recall, the FFRF has used tactics of intimidation to stifle academic freedom in courses in a public university and remove the Star of David from a Holocaust memorial on the grounds of the Ohio state capitol. Yet the FFRF itself plans to provide public high school students with a pamphlet depicting the Bible sexually assaulting a woman.
I need not point out the irony. At least this clears up any misunderstanding as to whether the FFRF is an organization advocating consistent Constitutional principles, or an anti-religious hate group.
